Sebum levels are associated with the relationship between skin properties and microbiota in Japanese women [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The diversity of the skin microbiota in Japanese women increases with skin aging and is accompanied by decreased sebum content. However, the impact of changes in skin microbiota on skin aging remains unclear.

The primary role of sebum in the pathophysiology of acne vulgaris and its therapeutic relevance in acne management

Journal of Dermatological Treatment
Background Sebum physiology and its contributions to acne vulgaris (AV) pathophysiology have been long debated. Within the pilosebaceous unit, androgens drive sebocyte production of sebum, comprising mono-, di-, and triglycerides (the latter converted to

A review of sebum in mammals in relation to skin diseases, skin function, and the skin microbiome [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Diseases vary among and within species but the causes of this variation can be unclear. Immune responses are an important driver of disease variation, but mechanisms on how the body resists pathogen establishment before activation of immune responses are

A Real-Time Detection Device for the Rapid Quantification of Skin Casual Sebum Using the Oil Red O Staining Method

Sensors, 2022
The human skin sebum suggests that it (along with other epidermal surface lipids) plays a role in skin barrier formation, the moderation of cutaneous inflammation, and antimicrobial defense.

Application of Sebum Lipidomics to Biomarkers Discovery in Neurodegenerative Diseases

Metabolites, 2021
Lipidomics is strategic in the discovery of biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). The skin surface lipidome bears the potential to provide biomarker candidates in the detection of pathological processes occurring in distal organs.

Fatty Acid Profiling in Facial Sebum and Erythrocytes From Adult Patients With Moderate Acne

Frontiers in Physiology, 2022
Fatty acid (FA) metabolism has been involved in acne vulgaris, a common inflammatory skin disease frequently observed in adolescents and adults, but it remains poorly defined whether the distributions or location of FA in facial sebum and those in the ...

Epidermal Growth Factor Modulates Palmitic Acid-Induced Inflammatory and Lipid Signaling Pathways in SZ95 Sebocytes

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) acts as a paracrine and autocrine mediator of cell proliferation and differentiation in various types of epithelial cells, such as sebocytes, which produce the lipid-rich sebum to moisturize the skin.

The Influence of Increasing Concentrations of AMPD on the Efficacy of Its Penetration into a Model Skin Sebum Layer

Pharmaceutics, 2020
Alcoholamines are widely used as auxiliary substances in various topical preparations. Their impact on the components of skin sebum allows them to be used in preparations that cleanse the skin of sebum in hair follicles.
